The Legend Of Zelda: Blood Of The Holders

Guest Apartments

Pacing about the main room in his guest apartments, Lord Alromon thought of his next course of action while his guardian Siam stood by the large window. Queen Rimeena’s revelation to him had put the information he obtained in the Royal Archives in to a totally different perspective.

“She told me everything I need.” Halon said as he paced. “The archivist said that darkness lies in the blood of the holder.” He stopped pacing and looked at his guardian. “But there are three.”

Siam moved closer to Halon. “I see what the riddle may be.” He said in his vaporous monotone.

“Oh?” Halon asked crossing his arms.

“If there was only one holder, my lord, they would already possess the Trivoid.” He answered.

“Of course, Siam. It does make sense, even the great goddesses themselves, which where the Triforce comes from, were separate deities, never one. Hence, the void never existed.” Halon picked up a wine bottle from the table and poured some into a silver goblet. “The cleric using the hairs was the first time the power of all three goddesses was used as one.” He said before drinking from his goblet. “Now we need the blood.”

“The princess should be easy enough.” Siam hissed.

“Indeed, we’d need only to wait for the right time of month.” Halon said with a laugh. “I will take it from her veins; I will take no chances, nor will I pursue moon blood from her sheets.” He finished and then emptied his goblet.

“Very well.” Siam said with a bow. “The boy’s blood may prove difficult to get, if he does not come.” He added, crossing his arms across his dark red tunic.

Lord Alromon smiled at this statement. “He’ll come. You heard the queen, and the princess is far too worried about him. He may be late, but he will come.” Halon refilled his goblet, then spoke again. “This Ganondorf, however, his blood will be much more difficult to obtain.”

“There are ways.” Siam cut in as Halon drank.

“He’s in a timeless realm.” Halon said and locked eyes with his guardian’s venomous gaze. “Your people can do this?” He asked.

“We can.” The answer came.

“How?” Halon asked.

“The queen said Ganondorf was sealed by the Master Sword; it no doubt inflicted a wound. That is all I need.” Siam answered, and Halon stood in silence for a moment.

“Get the blood, I don’t care how you do it.” Halon said. Siam again bowed obediently.

“As you wish.”

A knock on the big wooden doors to the chamber broke the brief silence.

“Enter!” Halon called, and the door opened a young officer of his personal guard entered.

“M’lord.” He said bowing. “Sir Siam.” He added and Siam answered with a slight bow.

“Yes, Lieutenant? What is it?” Halon asked.

“M’lord, the boy Link just arrived. Snuck into the palace past the guards.” The young lieutenant answered almost spitting with distaste. Halon grabbed the wine bottle from the table.

“This is good news!” He boomed, filling his goblet once more, and quickly drained it. He then handed the half-empty bottle to the young officer. “For you Lieutenant, the finest royal vintage. See that several casks are brought to the men in the barracks. It is time they celebrated.” Halon said, as the surprised young officer took the bottle.

“With pleasure, M’lord.” He answered with a bow and was off down the corridor at a run. A moment after the lieutenant was out of sight, Halon again turned to Siam.

“Snuck past the palace guards.” He said, looking to his guardian. “He is skilled.” Halon added.

“Do you wish to have the blood tonight?” Siam asked.

“Patience, Siam. We have time, but I do want you to follow him and find out more about this boy.” Halon replied, looking out the window. “This Link is very interesting indeed.”

“As you wish.” Siam answered once again with a bow, and in the blink of an eye was gone into the shadows.
